Autoform Browser Issues

Browser Specific Errors with the AutoForm component

AOL Browser specific
Q: Why does the Form Handler component sometimes return the following to me:
FormsMultiLine2=Could+you+tell+me+about+airport+information+for+light+planes...

A: This output seems to only occur when the form is sent from an AOL browser.  If the form is sent from either Netscape or Internet Explorer, the format of the data appears without the + signs between each word.

Internet Explorer specific - must be publishing form to Email

Internet Explorer 3.x
IE3 does not allow you to submit form data to an email. The reason for this is that IE3 does not have an internal mail client nor does it have the option to configure an external mail client. When a form is submitted to email in an IE3 browser, the local mail client will launch and compose a new mail message to the specified email address.

Internet Explorer 4
IE4 will send the form data to an email address only if you have configured the browser to use MS Outlook Express as its mail client.   Otherwise, IE4 will launch the local mail client and compose a new message to the specified email address.
